I'm at a new clinic for the summer while I pursue my studies.  When I arrived, I didn't have any vitamins and explained to the nurse that I didn't really like the ones I had been taking previously and was open to trying another type.   I picked up the prescription later and paid $50 for what I later found out was NOT for kidney patients, but rather for people with Cystic Fibrosis. 

Today the dietitian responded to a question that I posed after researching the "vitamin" online and told me that I shouldn't be taking it.  Instead she recommended something called "RenalTab 2".  It is supposed for be better tasting, more inexpensive ($10-$15/bttl), and made for kidney patients.  Has anyone heard of this before?  If so, what are your thoughts about the company and its products?

I think Henry P Snicklesnorter posted about these a few months back.  He would be the best person to ask.

Thanks for the tip.  He had posted under multi-vitamins, so it didn't come up when I searched for renal vitamins.

I'll pursue my questions w/him.
